For years, we've been taught that SEO was the key to being found online, write the blogs, keep the website fresh, get your backlinks, and trust the process. But there's a new shift happening in real estate that most agents haven't caught onto yet. AEO, or Answer Engine Optimization, is quietly becoming more powerful than traditional SEO. And it makes perfect sense. Buyers and sellers aren't searching the way they used to. They're asking full questions out loud into their phones, their cars, and their AI tools. They don't want links…they want answers. AEO is built for exactly that. It rewards the agents who show up with real answers to real questions, not just blog posts stuffed with keywords. It's the reason some agents are suddenly popping up in AI overviews, even if their websites aren't the "best ranked." How do we set ourselves up for success with AEO? How can we take AI to the next level? In this episode, I'm joined by digital marketing expert, StoryBrand Certified Guide, and the founder of Changescape Web, Ken Tucker. We talk about what this shift means for real estate pros: why AEO is winning, how zero-click search is changing consumer behavior, and why some of the platforms we stopped paying attention to, like Yelp and Bing Places, are becoming essential again. Things You'll Learn In This Episode Yelp and Bing Places matter more than you think LLMs pull their local business data from platforms most agents ignore. What opportunities open up when our Yelp and Bing profiles are fully optimized and feeding the AI tools directly? Zero-click search is reshaping how people choose agents Consumers are getting everything they need in the AI overview, no clicks required. How do we stand out when the decision is made before they ever reach our sites? Your FAQs are the new fuel for visibility AI tools elevate the agents who answer specific buyer and seller questions clearly and consistently. How do we build a robust FAQ ecosystem? Speed-to-lead is being rewritten by AI phone systems. AI voice assistants respond instantly and book appointments before a human can even glance at their phone. How would this impact our conversion rates?
